Default Site Optimization

This is just a sample of the sites I have optimized for people, this is the latest site I worked on.

Before Optimization, http://www.webpagetest.org/result/140327_55_15GH/

After Optimization, http://www.webpagetest.org/result/140328_NB_362/

As you can see, there is a significant improvement in the page scores.

Cut the load time almost in half.
Took 1.331s off the First Byte Time.
Cut the bytes loaded to the users browser from 867 KB to 691 KB

So as you can see, optimizing a site running vB4 is possible.

Here is my site's test, http://www.webpagetest.org/result/140309_YB_R99/

No I do not, but the person did make a donation, even though I told him it was not necessary.

poor example

all CSS should be loaded prior to ANY <scripts> ... doing so will allow the page to be rendered to the reader right away instead of waiting for <scipt> to load

<script> tags block parallel downloads

you may (or may not) improve the grade by using subdomain for static files

also, that bodiesonly site has META tags in <body>

It doesn't, the "poor man's CDN" is and always was a myth.

Actually it is a very good example of what can be accomplished with relatively very little effort.

There's always a point of diminishing returns. Re-coding the entire vB4 default style to get CSS loading first isn't practical.

And as illustrated, parallel downloads were not blocked in the example, at all. (See the waterfall chart.) All the CSS loaded in the first 11 calls anyway, even before optimization work.

Have you guys tried Google Page Speed ? It is free because it is in beta. It actually saves and compress all your site's images on Google's servers and serve them.

https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/service

It is very fast if installed correctly and you can install it on top of Cloudflare but I preferred cloudflare due to its easy cache purge with a push of a button. With Google Page Speed it was a little bit complicated and if i am working on my site, seeing the changes right way was a bit complicated with their purge system.
